Hi, I have made a version of this candy for many years. I use vanilla bark, fruity loop cereal, 1 cup salted mixed nuts (large brazil nuts removed) and about 1 cup mini marshmallows. Mix it all together and drop by spoonful onto waxed paper or parchment paper. Yours sounds very good. I may try them this year.

Hello! Vanilla coating squares are also known as candy coating squares. They come in chocolate or vanilla and you can usually find them in the baking aisle, next to the chocolate chips, in your grocery store. We recommend asking someone for help! Enjoy!
